well oin the weekend i was able to cut some perspecs out for a stand but wasnt able to make it properly as i ran out of time. so today on my day off i made it up with sillicon. it has worked a treat but i did make a mistake on the angle bits they stick a bit far out so i cant realy put a low tray under for the livefood to drop into. so on the next one ill make them a bit shorter and it should work reall good. well i also got some pics of it so here they are

and thanks poita for the idea of using perspecs

thanks chris
